Wale Matasaka

A popular area boy identified as Wale Matasaka has been butchered to death by suspected cultists in Abeokuta, Ogun State.

Wale was butchered in front of a popular lounge at Quarry road on Sunday night, May 22.

It was gathered that Matasaka was a suspected member of a cult, fuelling speculations that his killing might be revenge for the murder of Tommy, another popular area boy alleged to be a former leader of a rival cult group.

A source told Vanguard that the victim was sighted by his killers at the gate of the popular lounge and was shot repeatedly.

"After the victim fell down, the killers went further to butcher him before fleeing the scene,” the source said.
